A strong winter storm moved slowly through western Kansas during the period from Thursday, January 27th through Friday, January 28th.  Before it departed, a 20-mile wide band of snow at least 6 inches deep had fallen from central Comanche County to southwestern Clark County to southeastern Meade County.  In some areas, the precipitation started as freezing drizzle, before turning to all snow.   A band of 3 to 5 inches of snow fell northwest of the heaviest band, including the communities of Dodge City, Garden City, and Liberal.  The northwestern, northern, and extreme southeastern parts of the CWA received around 2 inches of snow from this storm.
